That is part of the motivation. They are a media company and need to keep releasing anything they can to make more money. They are seemingly unable to come up with fresh IP at an acceptable pace, so they just shit out live actions and sequels that are just financial black holes.
They are making movies to cater to a zeitgeist curated by a vocal minority via censorship, harassment, and emotional manipulation.
If they stayed true to the source material for live action or CGI remake, they would do fine. What they have been making is live action reimagining through a minority contempory lens that alienates the majority of their fanbase.
The worst part of their new direction is the pandering. Don’t just make an established character that was white a minority or alter the story to conform to some new philosophy, that is just lazy and everybody sees it. They need to come up with new stories with new new characters from a marginalized minority, like Moana or Lilo and Stitch. Nobody will honestly care about seeing a world through a minority charactersls view. Viewers didn’t care with Pocahontas or Mulan because they were an honest attempt at making an origional and good movie that happens to feature an American minority.
Don’t make Cinderella black, make an original story about a black character like Black Panther. Don’t make an empowered feminist, make an empowered feminist and tell her origional story like Mulan. Tell us new stories and make them appealing because they are interesting.
Also don’t beat a dead horse with a sequel that can never be as good as the first one because their story is told and trying to capitalize with “but wait, there’s more” after the book is closed.
They are going after low-hanging fruit one person asked for and wonder why few are satisfied.
It isn’t that complex. The problem with current autonomous driving is the car can only infer what other cars are doing and what is around it, especially if we are talking about an autonomous car with idiotic vision mapping without lidar.
With a flying car that is directed by an AI that knows where every other flying object is, what every flying object is going to do, and the locations of every stationary object based on maps and lidar on the vehicle, you can keep collisions far less likely. Taking the human control out of the picture improves the conditions substantially.
I wouldn’t trust a flying car at all, but I would trust an autonomous one with AI ATC far more than an autonomous car going through a construction zone on a highway in a major city during rush hour.
A lot of people can pass a background check that you wouldn’t want to escort your daughter.
The problem with an air ambulance idea is you need to make it big enough to work on a patient and it needs to be big enough to hold enough battery to have enough range. You could maybe have one big enough for working on the patient, but with a shorter range, with the only advantage over a helicopter being a smaller area needed to land.
I think it will be a Segway of the air, meaning only “rich” douchbags and sightseeing companies use them in America until enough people die. Opulent presenting countries will use them for headlines like Dubai and SE Asian countries will have them for the police tactical units.
Special licensing that is on-par with a helicopter license is needed immediately. They also need to establish travel corridors for commercial drones and flying cars. Delivery drones and flying cars without corridors just means debris fields.
The alternative is autonomous AI trafficked flying cars that is networked with all commercial drone traffic, but that is 5-10 years away from being reliable and possible.
Regardless, the big issue is safety, a helicopter can land without the engine running. A flying car can also land without power, but not as softly and with less survivability.
Yeah, they think that the evidence is the annotations and ignore them as being annotations as a bad faith argument.
Do the symbols on his knuckles means “MS13”? That is up for debate without supporting evidence from those who have relevant knowledge and authority on the subject, which DHS has not validated as of yet but the arresting officers in a 2019 incident when he was arrested with two others that were also “MS13 affiliated” by the local PD; if that was out of authority or guilt by proximity is up for debate.
Is it plausible that a gang member has coded tattoos? Absolutely because gangs do use symbols to code like white power people use 1488 and similar. To be fair members of MS13 and similar tend to be more blatant with their tattoos, but it may offer a tactical advantage to be more obtuse in tattoos depending on the individual’s role in the organization. So him not having “MS13” tattooed on his face is not necessary absolute proof that he is unaffiliated.
He was alleged to be affiliated to MS13 by an informant, who is advantaged by lying financially and legally. $100 bucks can make a guy busted for drug trafficking say anything to avoid the consequences of his actions.
His wife censors his tattoos in her calls for his return, which implies she knows the tattoos are a optics problem and she has also avoided admitting or denying any past gang affiliation. Not damning, but draw enough points and you can draw a line.
Could he have been a victim of circumstances and has a checkered past due to where he grew up and has been trying to reform himself and be a decent, honest, and lawful person? Absolutely, but his traffick stop in 2022 sure is questionable.
At the end of the day he was here illegally and two judges have decided he was at one time an MS13 member based on the information available to them, which is greater than we are privileged to.
You can disagree with deporting him because a prior administration decided he should not be immediately be deported, but administrations change and so can the decisions of a prior administration with a new administration.
How he is treated in his home country is a concern, but that is a concern of his family and the people of El Salvador who advocate on behalf of the imprisoned, not the American government because he is not a naturalized citizen.
When you get right down to the root cause, you can’t fix stupid and horny is a hard hill to overcome.
What has this country become, requiring ID to vote? What is this Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Finland, France, Mexico, or Canada, most of Europe, most of South America, or Most of Asia?
Battery terminal/lug cleaner, if you’re brave enough.
Raw fucking has a calming effect confirmed.
Well he did deserve it by wearing that hat.
See a doctor ASAP, growths conveying a similar appearance are not okay to “wait and see” with unless you won’t live past .45.
Poor ignorant fools not knowing the F-701 and F-402 hack.
Enjoy your writing in poverty and discomfort, you will never know glory because you sought comfort in convenience and thrift instead of greatness at all costs.
Him being a Mormon makes him make a lot more sense. He very much has a classic Mormon vibe.
Depends if you have the executive function that permits such ambition.
If you don’t, yes. It you aren’t sure, try your best. It you do, I am pretty sure you won’t, and that should be your guiding star to go.
War Thunder, if your 'tism is weapons grade and a national security risk.
They didn’t say “please”, nobody is being polite to the AI.
It’s like y’all don’t like the basilisk, and that is problematic, for you.
They also are the dumbest generation with a COVID education handicap and the least technological literacy in terms of mechanics comprehension. They have grown up with technology that is refined enough to not need to learn troubleshooting skills past “reboot it”.
How they don’t understand that a LLM can’t be conscious is not surprising. LLMs are a neat trick, but far from anything close to consciousness or intelligence.
